Chapter 1765 - The Threat of Death

The Threat of Death

There was no doubt that Zhang Xuan’s fusion with the spear was powerful, but it wasn’t enough to make even the slightest impact on Dragon Shisan, for the Exterminating Symbol Art could destroy everything.

As the Exterminating Symbol Art was cast out, endless destructive waves emanated from Dragon Shisan’s body, forming an enormous word, ‘EXTERMINATE’.

The giant word lingered high in the air while radiating the qi of death. It was startling as though it had come to life. It represented a kind of ancient Dao – the Great Dao of Destruction, which could crush all things in all directions.

Countless people found it slightly difficult to breathe. The ones who thought that Dragon Shisan would be defeated by Zhang Xuan’s Spiralling Dragon Overlord Spear began to doubt their guess, because it turned out that Dragon Shisan’s combat strength and the true horror was simply beyond their imagination. Dragon Shisan was a mighty Immemorial Battle Spirit with a horrifying immemorial secret art. And the technique he just used was an ultimate battle art. Even Zhang Xuan, who had fused together with his spear, was unable to suppress Dragon Shisan’s momentum.

“Kill!” Dragon Shisan bellowed.

The energy inside his body surged out like a massive wave. The giant word doubled in size. The particles around the void were utterly extinguished. Under the shocked and anticipating gazes of the crowd, the Exterminating Symbol Art collided with the Spiralling Dragon Overlord Spear once more.

*Hong Long......*

The earth trembled and mountains swayed. The qi of destruction looked very terrifying as it spread in all directions. Although the combatants were high in the sky, the residual waves from the collision shook the entire square below.

*Ka Cha......*

The unbreakable combat platform let out a crack, and visible cracks started appearing.

“This is no good.”

An elder yelled in alarm. No one had expected that the power of the two combatants would reach such an extent. One should know the battle platform had been deployed with a powerful restrictive spell by Venerable Ling Long herself, and was made out of sturdy materials. Even average intermediate Immortal Venerable wouldn’t be able to damage the battle platform even a little.

*Whoosh!*

Venerable Ling Long rose from her seat and flew towards the sky in the blink of an eye, and casted out powerful seals with both hands, repairing the damages of the platform.

The combat platform was incomparably sacred, and it’s the symbol of a major power. Its destruction would dampen the fighting spirit of the sect. Which was why Venerable Ling Long immediately acted to stabilize the platform without hesitation.

“Amazingly powerful! Is this the true means of Venerable Ling Long?”

“Venerable Ling Long is a figure that has already reached the peak of intermediate Immortal Venerable realm. On top of that, she’s also a genius amongst geniuses. Adding the terrifying abilities and techniques she posseses, she is as powerful as a late Immortal Venerable. Despite the fact that both Dragon Shisan and Zhang Xuan are very powerful experts, they are no match for her even if they joined forces.”

“That’s of course. The prestige that Venerable Ling Long has isn’t a joke. Now that the battle platform has been repaired, we’ll know who has won the battle.”

“It’s still hard to tell at this point. The means of an Immemorial Battle Spirit have exceeded our imagination and Zhang Xuan’s spear technique is also an ultimate skill. As a matter of fact, whatever the outcome of the battle, Dragon Shisan’s name will surely shake the whole domain today.”

..............

Everyone was astonished by the spectacular scene of Venerable Ling Long personally stopping the platform from collapsing. But after the cracks had been repaired, the focus of the audience reverted to the two combatants to see who’s the stronger one.

*Hong Long Long......*

The sky seemed to have been shattered, making the battlefield chaotic and obscuring everything inside, including Dragon Shisan and Zhang Xuan.

But soon, two silhouettes flew out from it. They both flew in a different direction. Clearly, they had been ejected by some rebounding force.

*Barf......*

Zhang Xuan spurted out a mouthful of blood. His face paled. The combat spear in his shivering hand had dimmed slightly. The fusion with the combat spear was indeed extremely powerful, but once he was defeated, he would suffer tremendous damage.

On the other side, although Dragon Shisan’s qi was also in slight disorder, his Fiery Golden Eyes were still sparkling and his qi was still as vast as the ocean, and he seemed incomparably fine as though he hadn’t suffered the slightest bit of injury.

The spectators weren’t fools. They could already tell who won the match at first glance.

“My goodness! Zhang Xuan lost before Dragon Shisan even used his Immortal Weapon.”

“What do you know? That’s a mighty immemorial secret art that’s even more terrifying compared to an Immortal Weapon. If he really used an Immortal Weapon, I’m afraid that this wouldn’t be the outcome.”

“This is really unexpected. This Dragon Shisan has actually reached such heaven-defying stage. There are really a lot of monstrous talents in this world. First, it’s Jiang Chen. Now, it’s Dragon Shisan.”

................

The scene was in an uproar as no one had ever expected this outcome. The people of Yellow Spring Sect were utterly dumbfounded. Ever since they arrived at Exquisite Paradise, they had been nursing indignation and thought that they could vent their feelings out and regain the dignity of their sect the moment Zhang Xuan got rid of Dragon Shisan, however the outcome disappointed them.

“It’s impossible! He’s just a half-step Immortal Venerable. How can he be this powerful?”

Zhang Xuan could not accept the truth. The shock he’s feeling right now was the same as Chu Tian’s earlier, but to a higher degree. After all, Chu Tian was only a half-step Immortal Venerable whereas he’s a true early Immortal Venerable. Both him and Chu Tian were on an entirely different level.

*Hong Long......*

Once again, powerful qi waves surged out of Dragon Shisan’s body as he cast out the Exterminating Symbol Art. The giant word ‘EXTERMINATE’ reemerged and solidified. Looking like a peerless killing god, he appeared in front of Zhang Xuan in a flash of lightning. His surging killing intent made it clear that he wanted Zhang Xuan dead.

It was understandable to many of them as this was a life-or-death battle, and both parties had been hostile to each other. If Zhang Xuan was the one who won the match, he certainly wouldn’t let Dragon Shisan live.

But since Zhang Xuan was an early Immortal Venerable, he should have no problem in saving his own life even if he had lost the match. Therefore, many people thought that it was rather difficult for Dragon Shisan to kill Zhang Xuan.

“Dammit!”

Upon seeing Dragon Shisan casting the Exterminating Symbol Art once again, Zhang Xuan’s facial expression turned unpleasant. He could sense the horror of the attack and the threat of death.
